The first guideline for joining the Underworld Bureau: "Never get close to evil spirits whose level you are not high enough. Never deal with things you can't handle. If you want to live longer, don't seek death."
Vulgarity does not have the rigorous explanation that a state agency should have, but it is easier for people to understand and remember. Lin Xi is good at reading. Of course she cannot forget this kind of thing, but she cannot implement it so thoroughly. As for Shisan around her, she has experienced too much.
Duo, he had already engraved this sentence in his mind, so he would hold the dagger smeared with black dog blood tightly in his hand from the moment he got in the car, and kept looking back at the unconscious little girl in the back seat, with that look in his eyes.
Like a lion staring at a water cowboy.
Lin Xi drove into a nearby hospital and quickly went through the admission procedures. At Shisan's strong request, she was placed in a single ward. The doctor diagnosed that the little girl was seriously sleep deprived and needed more rest.
During the inspection, Thirteen pulled out an ID tag from the little girl's pocket, which recorded the girl's identity information. Of course, even the ID tag was stained with blood.
Originally, the doctor was also curious about the blood stains, but it was not until Lin Xi showed his public security work permit that the doctor left.
From the identity card, I learned that the little girl’s name is Tian Yu. She has just turned 7 years old this year. She lives in a small town in a southern coastal city far away from the imperial capital. A little girl has no ability to travel so far alone to show up in the imperial capital.
Thirteen sent Lin Xi to the car to get the props for work. Rarely, he sat alone in the ward, facing the little girl sleeping peacefully on the hospital bed.
"Thirteen, let's do it. I can already confirm that what's in the little girl's body is the Nightmare Beast, a four-star evil ghost. It feeds on the host's spiritual power and is a monster born through the combination of human evil ghosts and nightmares. This is
The thing's activity time is very fixed, always between midnight and 4 a.m., when others are asleep. This guy's harm index is a fluctuating value, currently fixed at 49%. Once it reaches its activity period
, can easily pose a threat to humans.
Over the years, Nightmare Beast has learned how to rely on the system of the Underworld Bureau to protect its flawed living habits.
The superiors have issued revised and supplementary opinions on hunting two months ago. For special evil spirits, there is no need to consider the harm index when hunting. Nightmare beasts are on the list of supplementary instructions." Xiaoqiang was lying on Shisan's shoulder.
He advised softly.
Thirteen remained silent, and after a 5-second pause, he stood up, naturally took out the dagger stained with the black dog's blood and walked to the hospital bed.
The dim light could not illuminate his face, but Thirteen had already raised the blade in his hand,
At this moment, Xiao Tianyu woke up after rubbing his eyes from his sleep. Facing Shi San who was holding a butcher knife beside the bed, Xiao Tian Yu did not panic at all. He said to Shi San in such a well-behaved manner, "Uncle, kill me."
Me, thank you uncle, I really am a child who should not live in this world, please send me away from here so that my mother can rest in peace."
What kind of unusual experiences does a child have to be able to ask a stranger to slit his throat with a smile on his face? How desperate must he be for life to make a 6-year-old kid not want to live in the world? How much is the housing price?
Is it scary? Does the pressure of employment really make children lose confidence?
"Thirteen, I bought dinner." Lin Xi held a travel bag of tools and a lot of meat buns in her other hand. This was the only dinner she could buy now and was easy to carry.
Pushing open the door to the room, Lin Xi unexpectedly saw Shisan sitting beside the hospital bed, taking care of Xiao Tianyu and drinking boiled water.
"Slow down, don't choke." Thirteen's tone was so gentle that Lin Xi was stunned. At first, she doubted that she would see Thirteen standing next to the hospital bed with a butcher knife in his hand.
"Look, this is what I said, the Aunt Lin who saved you here." Shisan glanced at Lin Xi at the door and said.
"Hello, aunt." Xiao Tianyu, holding a glass of water in both hands, shouted with a smile.
"Ah? Okay." Lin Xi felt like someone had shot her in the heart. She was obviously only 19 years old, so was it so difficult to accept a sister who was 12 years older? Why did she have to be called aunt?
"Xiao Tianyu, you are so young, how did you come to the imperial capital from your hometown?" Lin Xi asked curiously while handing the bun to Xiao Tianyu.
"It was the human trafficker uncle and aunt who brought me here, and this bunny was a gift they gave me." When Xiao Tianyu spoke, he was still holding the bloodstained bunny tightly, "They are all good people, and they can make people warm."
They would feed me delicious meals, and they would always kindly introduce me to others as their child, especially when they saw the police uncle, they would always hug me so tightly."
"Xiao Tianyu, human traffickers are all bad people. They are bad people who take you away from your loved ones and sell you to strangers." Lin Xi earnestly played the role of a values teacher.
"Xiao Tianyu has no relatives anymore. My grandfather, grandmother, and father all died when I was 4 years old. My grandparents all died within three days of taking me home. Since then, I have no relatives.
Come and see me." Xiao Tianyu narrated his life experience while eating steamed buns. Both Lin Xi and Shi San were shocked to the core by the little girl's calm words.
"What about your mother?" Lin Xi noticed something wrong.
"My mother hanged herself when Xiao Tianyu was 3 years old, but I know that my mother has never left me. She has always been here to protect me." Xiao Tianyu patted his chest with his little hand, just in time.
It overlapped with the palm that penetrated her heart.
"Do you know your mother is an evil ghost?" Shisan suddenly interrupted, while Lin Xi pulled him aside and reminded him that Shisan's statement was too direct and too hurtful.
"Well, I know that she killed her grandparents, as well as her father. She also killed her grandparents, and even the human trafficker uncle and aunt, my mother did not let go... But these were not out of my mother's original intention, I
I know, she just wants to protect Xiao Tianyu so much. My mother loves Xiao Tianyu the most. She made this identity tag for Xiao Tianyu. She hopes that no matter where I go, I can find my way home." Xiao Tianyu held her tightly.
Wearing that identity tag.
"Don't lie to yourself. She doesn't love you at all. She is just selfishly destroying your life and eating your future. She is a bastard worse than a bastard!" Thirteen shouted angrily.
I saw Xiao Tianyu throw away the bun in her hand, cover Shisan's mouth beside the bed with one hand, and raise a finger with the other hand to make a "shh" gesture in front of her mouth. Her whole body was shaking nervously, and a pair of big lips
Tears welled up in Xing's eyes.
Soon, Lin Xi and Shi San understood why Xiao Tianyu was so frightened, because there was a gap on the back of the strange hand inserted into her heart, and a bloodshot human eye opened and rotated.
He looked at Thirteen and Lin Xi beside him.
After thirty suffocating seconds, the eye finally closed its eyelids. At that moment, Lin Xi's hair was horrified, and Lin Xi's back was wet with cold sweat. For the first time, she felt the spiritual pressure written in the book...
Reiatsu is the invisible pressure formed when a spiritual body much higher than itself releases spiritual power. Reiatsu is almost everywhere. For example, a buffalo can feel the reiatsu of a lion, and a rabbit can feel the reiatsu of an eagle. Good people
I can feel the spiritual pressure of bad guys, and when I take a shower and pick up soap, I can feel the spiritual pressure from behind...
Lin Xi has already encountered two ghost-catching incidents, encountering evil spirits that are full of harm to humans, but only now she guessed that she felt the suffocating spiritual pressure. Four-star evil spirits were not her past encounters.
The spiritual power of the little ghosts who have passed the test is many times more sharp than that of the 2-star evil ghosts.
"Mom, Xiao Tianyu will never leave you. No one can take me away from you, and no one can hurt us, so sleep peacefully." Xiao Tianyu caressed the chest gently, like
He comforted himself so much that he almost burst into tears.
"Stop talking bad about mom. Uncle Thirteen and Aunt Lin are both good people. I don't want to find you again when Xiao Tianyu wakes up, just seeing a room full of blood. I'm really scared, every day
When I fell asleep, stories like this were always going on around me. Let’s go before it gets dark, please.” Xiao Tianyu hugged his knees tightly and buried his little face between his knees.
People know what kind of mood she has been living with until today, "I tried to commit suicide. I thought that as long as my mother was with me, she would not hurt other people. But I was wrong. It didn't matter whether I jumped off the building or not."
, whether it’s drinking pesticides, no matter what the method is, I can’t die at all, my mother will always find a way to save me and let me continue to live.”
After leaving the ward, Lin Xi and Shi San sat on chairs in the corridor. The clock in front of them was beating at a constant rhythm. It was already 8 o'clock in the evening, and there were only 4 hours left before the Nightmare Beast woke up. They
There are two options, either leave as far as possible, or kill Xiao Tianyu, let the nightmare beast suffer heavy damage, and then accept this guy.
"Can we have a third option?" Lin Xi asked softly.
"Yes, report it to the Underworld Bureau. The Nightmare Beast is a key hunting target. They will send other people to deal with the incident. But as far as I know, other people will not be so unprofessional as to listen to Xiao Tianyu's story. They
He will break her neck before she opens her mouth, inflict severe damage to the nightmare beast, and then start catching ghosts." Thirteen leaned on the cold desk and chair, the lollipop in his mouth almost melting.
"Why does mother treat her daughter like this? Xiaotian Yu is obviously so sensible, but I don't understand what this evil ghost thinks and why he wants to hurt his daughter?" Lin Xi trembled slightly, her eyes already moist.
"Actually, there is another option..." Thirteen said suddenly.
"Thirteen, if you don't seek death, you won't die. Don't you understand this?" Xiaoqiang on Thirteen's shoulder shouted, and it understood what he was going to say without even having to ask for his own life.
"Quack!" The frog prince on the side swallowed Xiaoqiang again at the critical moment.
"What choice?" Lin Xi asked in shock.
"The art of psychics sneaks into Xiao Tianyu's dream and kills the nightmare beast from the source." Thirteen said coldly.
